Some people correct this sort of things with layers often several to get various parts correct and then paint transparency to combine. Easier to do than some might think, I couldn’t get a 2nd image to correct all blacks especially the nearest wing.
Anyway loaded directly into the gimp and used a photogenics point and shoot curve to map from raw with tiny adjustments to remove all clipping. This one is the replacement for the white wedding curve
that’s why I chose it - white needs to be good. 2 overlay layers at 25% transparency restored some of the black and may have flattened some of the whites a bit. Played further for better blacks elsewhere - couldn’t. Probably could make the whites better and then merge but left as is. Just reduced and sharpened a bit.
